Hilarious!
A fantastic piece of work - totally fabricated from the wildest but most inexperienced accounts ever.
I love the way that the spurious "Classified" sticker obscures total nonsense as if (heaven FORFEND) it was applied in an editing of the document to obscure the most obvious nonsense.
As a Work of Fiction? One of Five, after all it's not (intended to be ) funny, or interesting or even believable!
As a "Document" Oh no, no, no.
I wonder if the "Author" got paid for this work, to tell the truth, I hope so, after all, the punctuation was mostly correct.
